    Noble Marathon Space Attempt

    As I understand it the key to an early space victory is to have a big empire at an early date and I thought the bestest leader for this would be Darius the Iranian (the empire formerly known as Persian) Map: standard size, temperate, big n' small. Marathon speed. No barbs, huts or events. 10...

    RLC#5. Suleiman.

    So here we are again, still following in the footsteps of The Master. This time round I shall fail miserably :sad: on deity, or if I´m really lucky fail cheerfully :). Our leader for this game (just in case you didn´t read the title ;)) is Suleiman of the Ottomans. Usual screenshots...

    RLC#4 Sitting Bull.

    Times for the series introduction: As you may have guessed from the title we're playing Sitting Bull who has been chosen by the Gods of Civilisation to represent the ethnic and cultural diversity of the Native Americans. They probably thought 'you don't like our choice, souix us'...

    RLC#3. Genghis Khan.

    He is The Man. Greatest Military Leader of all time. He always fought his land wars in Asia (and won). He introduced Blitzkreig seven hundred years before it was even invented. And because this all happened in central Asia he's been ignored by western history. In Civ4 the Mongols...

    Another noob looking for advice.

    I've played a bit of BtS before but I'm still trying to get my head around FFH2. I'm currently playing a game on Erebus, noble, normal speed as the Gregori. I've got up to T260 and things are going fairly well. I had an early war with the Bannor who shared a valley with me, they were...

    RLC#2. The Immortal Gandhi.

    We're playing Gandhi this time round, on immortal difficulty. Hopefully easier than the last game :p but still challenging enough for a poor player such as me. As said in RLC#1 this is a continuation of Sisutil's :salute: ALC series with a slightly different title to avoid copyright...

    AW Shucks

    We're playing the Incas on Earth 18. No quecha rush? Aw shucks. Virtually isolated? Aw shucks. Blocked in by the Andes? Aw shucks. Always War? Shucks :D. Rolo, Astre and nocho have already volunteered. LK is wavering.... I might play a set or two as well. Anyone else...

    Lets help Mike

    Mike III has been trying to get some help and advice on how to play the Future Wars mod with a modern start. For a variety of reasons this has not gone smoothly so I thought I'd post a game for anyone interested to play. Usual stuff: anyone can play, no flaming, put details of your game in...

    RLC#1. Suryavarman of Khmer.

    Bit of an introduction before launching the game itself. This would have been ALC#34 but I'm sure that some (probably most ;)) people would be disappointed :sad: :cry: that I'm not Sisiutil :bowdown: dragging himself out of retirement by popular demand. However there are 18 leaders still...

    Rest of the Leaders Challenge (RLC)

    I've been thinking about continuing ALC (I'm assuming that most people have heard of it) following the sterling work of Sisiutil, Lord Parkin and Benginal. I've been trying to think of a title that is close enough to ALC but without usurping the title as the original series has almost...

    Pigs in Flight #1. The sty's the limit.

    My knowledge of civ is derisory :confused:. My game play is risible :lol:. My narrative skill is nonexistent :sleep:. My attempts at wit are both feeble and juevenile :rolleyes:. I'm trying to beat immortal :suicide: I need all the help I can get :please:. Our far from fearless...

    We´re not all barbarians

    After the resounding success :rolleyes: of ´They´re All Barbarians´ when Tokugawa played in character and still won (:eek:) its time for a change of pace. And also a change from a leader acting in character to a leader acting totally out of character. Ladies, Gentlemen and Civ Fanatics we...

    The Paladins

    Haven't hosted a game for ages. Here's a nice simple one. "The paladins, sometimes known as the Twelve Peers, were the foremost warriors of Charlemagne's court, according to the literary cycle known as the Matter of France." (lifted straight from wikipedia). The aim of the game is to...

    PH15-not. Birds of a Feather.

    A Noble Walkthrough

    I thought I'd have a go at a walkthrough on Noble. I'm aiming to play fairly short sets and try to focus on the mechanics as well as the strategy. Having read a couple of threads on the problems people encounter with aggressive AIs I thought I'd play William on a pangea map, all settings...

    Random Event Wonder Bug

    Don't know if this has been reported before. I was one turn from completing Great Lighthouse when I had the hurricane random event; 'your lighthouse has been destroyed', 'you can no longer build the great lighthouse' and I lost the lighthouse (fair enough, that's the event) and all the hammers...

    A Shadow of Emperor Quill

    Well I've been lurking and posting in CFC for a while now but still haven't won on Emperor :blush: (I'm cautiously optimistic about my game in MLG6 but that's only up to 1400ad so far). So I saw Quill18's Emperor game and started to follow it (up to about 1800bc). Then I thought that I'd...
